Scope of laboratories to acquire NABL Certificate for Quality testing in Chennai

  • Clinical Biochemistry

  • Clinical Pathology

  • Haematology and Immunohaematology

  • Microbiology and Serology 

  • Histopathology 

  • Cytopathology

  • Genetics 

  • Nuclear Medicine (in-vitro tests only)



Guidelines to be followed


Following are a few of the NABL Guidelines for Quality followed by various laboratories:

  • Any laboratory operating at more than one location within a district must have the same legal identity.

  • The lab should have documented policies and procedures for selecting and referring to other labs for a second opinion.

  • A reference material must be used while checking for reagents before use.

  • The certified labs must continuously strive for quality improvement. This evaluation includes and is not limited to sample collection and identification, result analysis and reporting, equipment downtime and measurement uncertainty.

  • The laboratory must decide the retention time of records per national, regional and local regulations. 

  • To ensure the effectiveness of operations, the laboratory must have sufficient space concerning sample collection, workbench, patient reception etc.

  • The laboratory must have an uninterrupted power supply to ensure smooth functioning of gadgets, equipment and other electronic items.

  • Reagents, stains, kits, etc., should be stored as recommended and used before their expiry date.

  • The instruments should be calibrated from NPL, India, or NABL-accredited calibration. Laboratory. Those instruments should be recalibrated after specific intervals of time.

The Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) technique is used in FT-IR spectroscopy

Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) is a powerful measurement technique used in FT-IR spectroscopy. Let’s explore its applications and how it works: 1. Identification of Chemical Compounds:  ATR-FTIR spectroscopy helps identify chemical compounds by analyzing their unique infrared absorption patterns.  It’s particularly useful for characterizing organic and inorganic materials. 2. Studying Molecular Structures:  ATR provides insights into molecular structures, including functional groups and bonding arrangements. Researchers use it to investigate polymers, proteins, and other complex molecules. 3. Surface Properties Examination:  ATR allows surface analysis without extensive sample preparation.  It’s valuable for studying thin films, coatings, and interfaces. 4. Analyzing Polymers:  Polymer characterization benefits from ATR due to its ability to analyze solid samples directly. Researchers study polymer composition, additives, and degradation. 5. Biomolecule...
